Good luck with this guys! I'm looking forward to it. If you guys get an emulated version to run, for testing, count me in as a beta tester.

The reasons I still use Amiga OS:

boots in seconds.

Can add/remove programs by commenting out a line of text
(unlike registry)

Can make a new bootable partition just by dragging and dropping what's on another partition.

You can easily learn exactly what every file and folder does,
they are not all jammed together with weird names like windows.
e.g: Monitor drivers go in the monitor folder, printer drivers in the printers folders, libraries in libs etc. Just move em into storage if you don't want to use them. (...which is called storage!)

Very low overheads: it's there to run other programs, and to be efficent and easy to learn. it doesn't need a gig of ram and a 1Ghz processor just to run itself.

Excelent Multi tasking.

Very responsive.

@bloodline and paolone

Actually Anubis isn't even an operating system.  Nothing exists but the name and a web site that's so vague as to be useless.  Just more Amiga vapourware....nothing will come of it.

And we already have hundreds of various distros of Linux.  One more distro called Anubis added to the mix will go unnoticed and is a pointless waste of time and resources.

I think he is just spooked after seeing the (although extremely basic) Anubis-OS running on uTube.  I may break down this fall and purchase the Genesi netbook.

@Paolone:

Thats exactly what *I* mean: "I really, sincerely hope this other lets-try-to-resurrect-the-amiga, will NEVER happen !!!

Having said that, u're free to have fun with your AROS.
If u get excited just by going to Google Maps in OWB for AROS, then continue to do so. :-)

I think Anubis will be great. I just have that feeling.
But I hope AROS will benefit in some ways from the Anubis development too.

EUAE will be integrated for those who want it.

How?

I've yet to see any sensible plan on how exactly that is supposed to happen. This thing has been talked about for years while nothing tangible has come out of it so far.

Excelent Multi tasking.

AmigaOS scheduler is rather lame. Any busy higher priority task will block lower priority ones forever. Having tons of tasks results in exponential slowdown inside the scheduler (it uses linear list walking). There is no guaranteed fairness in the scheduler. Anything has a better scheduler these days.

What are you referring to, AROS or Anubis-OS?  I'm only referring to Anubis-OS and not AROS.

If it truly is the behaviour and ideas of the OS itself that are what made Amiga great then I wish you the best of luck :-D

Building atop the Linux kernel to get around the lack of drivers and other issues sounds like a pretty good idea. Though I think you might still have difficulty with nVidia/Ati drivers occasionally.

Ignore the naysayers and their motives, what matters is that the developers want to try it.
